•Kinetic in the firing pin - chemical when it hits the primer- turns back into kinetic(both ways), light, heat, and sound energy - hits the target kinetic, light and sound.
throwing ball horizontally,bullet from a gun,ball shot back and forth in a tennis court
Because linear momentum is conserved. Before the shot, the momentum of (gun + bullet) is zero, so it has to be zero after the shot. The bullet gains forward momentum when fired, so the gun must gain reverse momentum in order to maintain the zero sum.
A stretched rubber band has potential energy like a spring. It has the potential to snap back. I used to build model airplanes with rubber band motors. I also had a rubber band gun that shot rubber bands. The potential energy stored in the rubber bank is what made these devices work.
No. That's why a bullet shot horizontally from a gun and a bullet dropped from the muzzle of the gun at the same time both hit the ground at the same time.
electromagnetic energy
There are a few energy transformations when a gun is fired. Some of these include potential to kinetic energy, chemical to mechanical energy, and chemical to electromagnetic energy.
Although their linear momenta are equal, their potential, kinetic, and heat energies are different. The gun has more heat. Regarding potential energy, it can vary. But if the shot is anywhere near horizontal and the shooter doesn't drop the gun, then the recoiling gun has more gravitational potential energy at any time after the shot. The fired bullet has more kinetic energy.
IF ANY SHOT GUN HAS A MOD CHOKE OR IMPROVED ITS OK, ONLY FULL CHOKE WILL NOT BE SAFE, BULGING IN THE BARREL MAY OCCUR.
While it is moving, it has kinetic energy. Before it is shot, it has chemical energy - that's what causes the explosion.
No
To hear the gun shot at the start of the race
Yes.
There is no patron saint of gun shot injuries.
My gun.
a gun.
